A semi truck bearing an oversize load clipped a railroad bridge Monday, causing the cargo to fall onto a nearby car and kill its driver.

The Feb. 4 accident happened on U.S. 59 just north of Milan in southwestern Minnesota's Chippewa County.

George Piasecki, 61, of Granite Falls, Minn., died at the scene.

According to the Minnesota State Patrol, Piasecki was northbound on U.S. 59 in his Toyota Camry just before 7 a.m. The truck, driven by Dennis Clark, 66, of Vernal, Utah, was heading south toward Piasecki's car when it struck the bridge.

Clark was not injured in the accident, which remains under investigation. The State Patrol's initial report didn't detail the nature of the truck's cargo.
